How to bet with Stratos.Live

Pick a risk profile on the left — Conservative, Balanced or Aggressive — then hit Scan all live sports. Each scan pulls every in-play game, plus the upcoming games you allowed, prices them against consensus and marks the ones that clear your rules. Narrow with the sport and bet-type filters above the board; the counts always reflect what your filters actually leave in view.

Value / edge

How much better the book's price is than the consensus price across every book we read. +3% means the market is paying 3% more than the fair number.

Win chance

The de-vigged consensus probability of the selection landing — the books' own opinion with their margin stripped out, not our forecast.

Books agreeing

How many sportsbooks priced this market. Fewer books means a thinner, less reliable consensus, so your risk profile requires a minimum.

Qualified

The pick cleared every rule in your risk profile (value, confidence and book count). Everything else is shown greyed out for context only.

Feed badge

Which live feed the price came from — the odds provider, or the backup feed if the provider was unavailable for that competition.

Price history

The sparkline under a market is real recorded movement. Steam toward your side usually means you're late; drift away means you beat the move.

NO BET

If nothing on the slate clears your rules, the board says so. That is a valid, expected result — not a failed scan.

1. Add legs. Tap + Add on any pick, or let the builder assemble a slip to your payout target. Your parlay re-prices the whole slip every time a leg changes, including the correlation discount on same-game legs.
2. Open your book. The handoff buttons deep-link straight into the market at your sportsbook. Add your own account URLs in settings so handoffs land in your logged-in account instead of the public page.
3. Check the price before you confirm. Live prices move in seconds. If the book shows worse odds than the board, the edge may already be gone — re-scan rather than chase it.
4. Confirm the stake at the book. The wager is placed and settled entirely by your sportsbook.

A handoff is a suggestion, not an order. Nothing is wagered until you confirm it at the sportsbook, and only bets you confirm are counted in your results.

After a handoff, Stratos asks whether you placed the bet. Answer Track bet and the wager, its price and the stake are written to your ledger. When the game settles, mark it won or lost — that is what turns the board into value proof.

• Win rate

  Settled bets won ÷ settled bets, so a hot slate can't hide a cold month.

• ROI

  Profit against everything you staked, not against your best day.

• Profit

  Net return in currency across every settled wager.

• CLV

  Closing-line value: your price versus the market's last price. Consistently positive CLV is the strongest sign the process is working, even before results catch up.
